I was just wondering how people felt about this article (The Challenges and Limitations of Assimilation).
I have mixed feelings about it because on the one hand I think, who are we to take these children away from their families and everything they know to put them in a boarding school to teach them the proper "American way"? Just because they live in the United States does not mean they have to be "civilized" to the American way to be like everyone else. Their culture makes them special.
However, I did find it interesting that some people really did enjoy their experiences in the boarding schools while others did not. So it was a good thing for some and a bad thing for others.
I dont know, I just wanted to see other peoples feelings about this article!
